This escape occurred around 6:30 to 7am this morning.
Waigani Police Station Commander Jerry Yawa confirmed this with Loop PNG this morning upon arriving at the station.
“All of them have escaped but this is because an incident occurred before hand.”
Yawa says details are still sketchy and police are yet to confirm the details of what had actually taken place this morning that resulted in the escape of the prisoners in their holding cells.
“Quite a good number of them have escaped from their holding cells,” says Yawa.
